Have you ever had a Toshiba Laptop before...................

Maybe they have improved but my experience is nothing but trouble.

You could have probably bought a close spec dell for that money.

i spent 1300 on an acer ferrari 3 years ago, had 4 major repairs inside 12 months, more fiat than ferrari, id never trust acer again as there support was crap too, and believe me theres nothing to touch this toshiba specwise for under 750quid

looks good to me, i personally recommend dells or hp but that does look excellent value for money!

and you lucked out on XP as well, Vista sucks at the moment!

Just playing with it now, its also got surround sound with Harmon Kardon speakers, theres a free Vista upgrade if i want it, and it has Windows Media Centre Xp installed so i can rig it up as a Sky plus thingy etc...

the toshiba laptops of late are really good from what i hear and excellent spec for the money, dual core and 2gb of ram for that money, cant go wrong imo

I tried to register when they first came here but they only wanted "Professionals".
They had to drop that and let anyone in after a poor response. .
